Eysenck & Keane's handbook is a standard text for students in cognitive psychology. The other is the Rosenberg book, but I'd avoid that one.

Anderson's text is quite good with a different style, and Thagard provides an excellent overview of cog sci and how psychology fits into it.

I recommend Eysenck and Keane's Cognitive Psychology. Don't let the name fool you, it contains a whole lot of cognitive neuroscience and neuropsychology.

The reasons I think it is great is because it gives you different disciplinary perspectives on cognition and because it's written almost in the style of a review in a journal. It's not just a list of facts and figures with some review questions tacked on, but a critical review of different theories and the research both supporting and contradicting them.
